The campaign plans to have a presence this month at more than 200 Pride events in 23 states, including all of the battleground states, and to launch a paid media blitz aimed at mobilizing LGBTQ voters, two campaign officials said in details first shared with NBC News.

Some of Biden’s allies worry about waning support among LGBTQ voters.

The Human Rights Campaign, recently committed to spend $15 million in six battleground states to help Biden win in November, citing concerns about waning support from LGBTQ voters. HRC estimates that this year one-third of the 75 million “equality voters” — who vote based on support for LGBTQ rights — might not be guaranteed Biden voters.

I’m not voting for Biden, I’m voting against trump.

Yeah, the GoP needs to be crushed since they literally plan to dismantle democracy

Biden not winning means not even a chance at fair elections, period

This is the way. I did it in 2020 for Biden as he was my 2nd least favorite in the primary. I've been pleasantly surprised with significant labor wins, and debt forgiveness. All procured by his administration. There are definitely some negative issues larger than him and his administration. Sitting this out and risking fascists getting power will only end worse.
